HT3000 - The ultimately simple customizable heat tower

⚠Note: Thingiverse Customizer seems to have currently issues with generating customized models.Alternatively just download the scad-file and run it yourself on your local machine. When doing so make sure to also download the segment STL file into the same directory as the .scad file and switch/comment the lines 40/41 in the latter one.

Who the heck needs all those 4739 heat towers available here on thingiverse?

When all you need is a...

1. plain & simple heat tower

2. fast to print

3. with both, a 45deg and rounded overhang

4. that has a customizable temperature range (print just what you need)

5. and is hollow, so that you can torture test layer adhesion by trying to crack each temperature segement loose with a spliers

This is for you!

Todo

This is my first OpenScada model and it is a work in progress. Things to do are:

• Optimize tower segments measurements (even measurement values, easier to remembers & post process asf.) ⏳
• ~~Implement handling for ordering parameter~~ ✅
• Find simple & elegant solution for automatically preparing GCode with temperature commands, so that no cumbersome handling in slicer/post-processing is needed. I do intentionally not provide any raw gcode files for myriads of any possible heat range combinations. ⏳
